Note they said "less than 40 hours", so that's "at least $300/hour". I feel like my buyers agent, who I really liked, worked more like 10-20 hours for $9K, for $450-$900/hour.

Don't get me wrong, I really liked her and she did a great job, but I'm not sure she did $9K great...

It’s at least that figure for engagements that result in a transaction. That doesn’t take into account the people they spend 40 hours with and don’t end in a transaction.

I feel you. I just bout a $715k house largely because I found it online, and went through an agent to show me the house and, I guess, do some paperwork for me? Her company made $21k off of the seller, and I'm sure she took at least half of it.

Probably 10-20 hours of work in total.
